How to profit from Betting Exchanges (BEX)

How would you like to trade a market where you get large regular price swings every 10 minutes in the afternoon, seven days a week. A
market where all prices are set purely by supply and demand, few transaction costs, no middle men and you only pay commission if you win? Where you can freely act as a market maker and where you have direct market access and where you can create a spread for others to take?

Betfair has revolutionised the betting market and created an open platform for exchanging risk on sports events. This market is now viewed much more like a traditional financial risk market than an old fashioned betting market. Smart users have realised that there are huge opportunities on Betfair because they can buy and sell risk in much the same way they would in a normal financial market but without the burden of cost or the restricted access that is usually associated with traditional financial markets.

Green here too but greened up before the 2nd goal

took a risk Bak and let the back bet run for a while for a few more ticks, nice when it turns out well :-)

Scouser goalie sent off!

Harlosh - 05 Feb 2006 18:46 - 8654 of 10502

Anyone on the Barca game?

Barca 0-1 down. Can't see it staying like that. Backed Barca at 3.8

bakko - 05 Feb 2006 18:53 - 8655 of 10502

Stuck a small amount on Barca at 4.2

If anyone wants to follow the golf, the pga tour has a free trial of its tour cast at the mo. Worth a look at and also could be useful when sky arent showing the "right" player

bakko - 05 Feb 2006 19:16 - 8659 of 10502

Harlosh - 05 Feb 2006 19:19 - 8660 of 10502

Some you lose.

bakko - 05 Feb 2006 19:24 - 8661 of 10502

Only stuck a few quid on so not too upset.

Picked up a tidy profit from the cricket this am :-)

Harlosh - 05 Feb 2006 19:25 - 8662 of 10502

Barca pulled one back

bakko - 05 Feb 2006 19:26 - 8663 of 10502

Barca 2-1 down now

bakko - 05 Feb 2006 19:39 - 8664 of 10502

Barca 3-1 down now

bakko - 05 Feb 2006 19:45 - 8665 of 10502

Just traded out of my Barca losing trade :-)

Harlosh - 05 Feb 2006 19:45 - 8666 of 10502

I think it's all over.

Harlosh - 05 Feb 2006 19:46 - 8667 of 10502

Well done Bak.

With regard to horses worth keeping an eye on I see Barney Curley is running Ndola in the 3.40 at Lingfield tomorrow - worth keeping an eye on the betting pattern, but be careful to weight for the serious money to come in - his horses tend to go one way or the other

Scripophilist - 05 Feb 2006 22:33 - 8669 of 10502

Thanks Steve, I'll keep an eye on it.

Its an odd one scrip because it has had fair form on the AW (winning last time out) but has been over jumps recently with absolutely no success (best was 6th out of 9 in 4 races) so very hard to rate its chances - the ideal scenario for the trainer lol

gonna watch the start of the superbowl - hopefully ill stay awake till half time to see the stones!!!
